Over the past few weeks I have been reflecting upon these things and making plans for projects to come. There has been a lot to celebrate this year, and I am not always good about acknowleging when things work out well. Along the way, I also learned several lessons for improving my work so that I can do some things better the next time around. At present, I am in the middle of crafting a paralel list of things that I hope to deliver in 2011. In a few days I will be posting it here as a way to keep myself accountable over the coming months.
I would really enjoy hearing about your celebrations and lessons from 2010 and you dreams for 2011, so send me your lists and comments when you have a minute.
Many thanks to Erica Sipes who shared an interesting New York Times op ed piece from Oliver Sacks about a different kind of New Year's resolution. To read it cick here
